John Simon is a multi-talented writer, songwriter, and creative entrepreneur based in Guthrie, Oklahoma. After spending 23 years behind the wheel as a dedicated truck driver, John's life took a turn when health concerns forced him off the road. Rather than slowing down, he shifted gears—channeling his grit, heart, and storytelling instincts into writing books and music that celebrate rural life, personal freedom, and the spirit of Americana.

He is the founder of Simon Music and Simon Books, platforms that amplify original songs and stories rooted in tradition, humor, and emotional depth. Whether he's crafting heartfelt ballads, playful animal adventures, or patriotic anthems, John's work resonates with audiences who appreciate authenticity and a good story well told.

John lives with his family in Guthrie, where he's surrounded by the love of his loyal Pitbull, Rona, and the inspiration of Oklahoma's wide skies and close-knit community. His creative journey is a testament to resilience, reinvention, and the power of storytelling to connect, heal, and uplift.

“Cover Ain’t the Story” is a defiant rock anthem that celebrates unity across race, religion, and orientation. With thunderous riffs and soul-baring lyrics, it tears down prejudice and lifts up the truth that identity runs deeper than appearances. It’s a rally cry for misfits, dreamers, and rebels—an electrifying tribute to love, legacy, and the power of being unapologetically yourself.
